PostGIS in Action 2nd Ed (Manning)
Tuesday, 28 April 2015

Processing data tied to location and topology requires specialized know-how. PostGIS is a free spatial database extender for PostgreSQL, every bit as good as proprietary software. Regina O. Obe and Leo S. Hsu teach readers of all levels to write spatial queries that solve real-world problems. First they give you a background in vector-, raster-, and topology-based GIS and then quickly moves into analyzing, viewing, and mapping data. This second edition covers PostGIS 2.0 and 2.1 series, PostgreSQL 9.1, 9.2, and 9.3 features, and shows you how to integrate with other GIS tools.
